    So, as I’m sure many have noticed, I’ve been busy trying to work myself to death for the past five years or so.  So, in that time, I’ve worked ridiculous hours with very little time off, and often multiple shifts in a day.  As a result, I was more than a little unproductive here.

    I retired the end of March, and spent the first fourish months doing nothing but sleep.  Have one final test from my doctor on November 22nd, so should be done with all that shit for a bit as well by then.

    In the meantime, I am now checking all the email addresses I always did before, as I now have the time.  Am easing back into the archive repair, minor hunting, and other things I did as well.

    Sorry for the absence, but, glad to be back

    The problem I’ve noticed, is even when a user white lists our mail server, we STILL get marked as spam. Not always, but often enough for it to be an ongoing issue.
  3. DemonGoddess
    For the password reset, are you ensuring there are at least TWELVE characters in the password? When I first did it, I used 9, and then remembered I needed to use 12. Once I did that, it worked just fine. I had to have the validation/password reset resent to me like many of you, as I was one of the approximately 1% of users to where it didn’t work right.
  4. DemonGoddess
    Okay everyone, if the password reset doesn’t work, we simply have to wait for the script to finish sending out all the mail. At that point, we can manually resend you that link. It’s not happening for everyone, and has to do with how our email services are parsing the mail to begin with.

    This is the right spot, yes. HoS is for those we’ve found and banned from here.
  6. DemonGoddess
    Manta will look into why it’s not working for some of us once the script to send the mails is finished.
  7. DemonGoddess
    looks like I need to adjust some perms…..this doesn’t belong in HoS

    The no alts rule has been in place for many, many years.

      Not sure if that’s an improvement from previous posts or not.  Anyways, good luck in hunting/poaching more time off.

      All I have to do is THINK the v word and the shit hits the fan.  Every time 🤬

    Well, having searched where I’ve had to delete minors, plagues and trolls; I ruled that out. So, that means that somehow it showed as duplicate accounts (whether by birthday and real name, or whatever tied them together) and the accounts were then merged.
  11. DemonGoddess
    Different yahoo email for that account, than what you show for forum
  12. DemonGoddess
    Login is not locked. Password reset still is, while we clean things up. If you’re entering your password with any capitals, it won’t work, as the field is case sensitive. None of the letters in your password are in upper case.
  13. DemonGoddess
    I’ll have to double check, but I think logins have been disabled at this point in time.
  14. DemonGoddess
    Link to the account that still shows, and I can find out what exactly the email address is for that one.

    Just got home from work, going back shortly. Found and killed the intrusions.

      Find a better gig?  IIRC, you’ve been on double shifts ever since I joined the server (about eight years now).

      The double shifts are off an on.  it’s part of what happens when you’re a manager in retail ya know.  I’m salaried, so no OT fer me

      Oh, gods, been there, done that. I pointed out to one of my staff that they in fact made more money than me since they got overtime and I was salaried. It’s across all industries, I think, and it truly sucks.

    As far as I’m aware, users may be attempting to review, but can’t yet. That could be what’s triggering the emails.
  18. DemonGoddess
    If you have stories you want deleted from your recommended reading right now, instead of waiting, I can actually do that IN the database.
  19. DemonGoddess
    I hope so as well.
  20. DemonGoddess
    We are making progress on that end, by the way. So, hopefully, we will have this resolved sooner rather than later.
  21. DemonGoddess
    No problem!
  22. DemonGoddess
    Who said I was mad? Sure, I’m peeved about the persistence. But, there are ways to find out how they do they things, which is what I’ve been spending time ferreting out. That’s actually the thing, finding out, HOW exactly they were doing what they did, so we can guard against it. I can tell you it was a brute force hack. I can see that in the logs.
  23. DemonGoddess
    I do believe I found the method. Waiting on Manta to confirm.
  24. DemonGoddess
    And it’s gone now

    If the link is left, I’ll go directly in the db and make it go away
